How can a huge orchard be left unattended! There are more than 300 gardeners, all of whom are shrewd and capable, and each of them is no worse than the adventurer.

It has been almost three years since the orchard was built, and there has been nothing abnormal in the past, but something strange has happened recently, and the precious rainbow fruit has frequently disappeared, even if the protection is strengthened, it has not been able to stop it.

At first, the fruit farmer tycoon thought it was a human steal, after all, there are many people who covet such strange things as rainbow fruits! And he planted patches of rainbow fruit trees, and it was hard not to be coveted!

A week ago, I finally found some clues.

Although the thief was not found, it was confirmed that the thief was not a human, but an unknown creature. As for what it is, it's up to the adventurers to investigate!

As a steward who manages day-to-day affairs, Duck understands the seriousness of the matter, and he contacts the Adventurer's Guild early on.

After these days of hard work, he has some definite information. It's a pity that my ability is limited, and if you want to catch the hateful thief, you have to hire a reliable guy...

The content of the commission is really simple, but it is not something that anyone can take if they want to, it is a serious D-level commission, not a benefit for newcomers to "practice their hands".

If you take it in a squad, at least two members must be D-class!

The repair team happened to meet the standards, and Honglian, as a fan of small wealth, was very happy when she saw that the remuneration was 15 silver.

But when she came to the gate of the orchard, she, like Jarrow, found things difficult to manage: it was so weird! The fruit was plucked, but no clues were left, and the thief was sure that it was not a person?

Let's take a closer look when we're inside! Then again, why do I think this uncle is a little weird?

Black hair, a kind face, wearing a butler's uniform, just over 40 years old, has grown a lot of gray hair.

Known as Uncle Da, he is the right-hand man of the fruit farmer tycoon. He is basically responsible for many matters in the orchard.

As soon as Jarrow saw him, he thought he was very interesting: he was really rich, everything he was wearing... It's all very good, it seems that his status here is very unusual!

Those black leather shoes alone should be able to kick a goblin to death! And that coat, I always felt no worse than my cloak!

Behind Duck were two bodyguards, all of them silent with straight faces. It seems to be very strong, and one of them makes Jarrow feel a lot of oppression: even they can't handle it, can we really do it?

"Thank you Uncle Da for your hospitality! We're resting, can you tell us more about it? What's going on? ”

After the five of them rested in the small room for a while, and motioned for the two of them to prepare something, Duck asked, "Seeing that you are still very young, there are really people who are D-class."

"Uncle, I showed you this just now, why don't you believe it?"

The official coat of arms can't be faked, but Duck just doesn't believe it, after all, they're too young: borrowing the coat of arms to take on tasks these years... It's a common thing, are the guilds sure they're not fooling me?

Under Dark's questioning gaze, Jarrow showed a slight hand.

No chant for instant magic? The fire is so fierce, this power... It's D-class, yes, it's just.. When did the Magic Guild have more newcomers like this?

"Qualified..!"

Jarrow is now a celebrity, and he didn't recognize it at the first time, and he can't blame Dark, mainly because Jarrow is not in good physical strength, and the makeup on his face is not clean, and as a result, when he sweats, he becomes a grimace!

Uh, how could it be him? What to do?

The lord is the most annoying of this kind of guy, or else.. Persuade them to go back? No, it's hard for someone to pick it up, and if you wait, I'm afraid the rainbow will really be picked up by those weird guys!

"Huh? What are you all looking at me like this? ”

Earlier, Jia Luo felt strange: Why did Red Lotus and Charles look at me? It's all weird?

Glancing at the mirror in a hurry, he suddenly reacted: Damn! I should have known that I should have a mirror with me, just like Blue!

In order to wash his face clean, Jarrow was absent from the following discussion: "I'm sorry, I'll come when I go, you guys talk slowly." ”

The situation was urgent, and Duck didn't make a detour: "Thank you very much for coming!" As you can see, this orchard is carefully managed by my lord, and every fruit tree is precious, not to mention the fruit on the tree! ”

"Recently .. There are always some "thieves" who come to steal the fruit, and our people can't do anything about it, so we have to invite you to come! Here's the information we've gathered so far, so please take a closer look. ”

There are three photos, one of which is a frontal photo of the thief. The photo is too blurry to reveal only the general outline: a humanoid monster?

There is also a strange footprint on the tree, three claws, which looks like the paw prints of some kind of bird.

As for the third photo, it is the filth residue of an unknown creature, and a small encapsulated object is attached to the back of the photo.

Red Lotus's sense of smell is very sensitive, others can't smell it, but she can smell certain information. It was precisely because of this that she suddenly became uncomfortable: "Red Lotus, what's wrong with you?" It can't be a bad stomach, right? ”

Damn, this is much more terrifying than the cat demon, what kind of monster is it?

How strong the moon haze, Red Lotus knows. Rather than face the moonlight, she would rather deal with the goblins!

There are multiple crimes committed at the same time, and there are at least ten unknown creatures, each of which has at least the intensity of the moon?

For Red Lotus, this is all a no-brainer. After calming down, there was a burst of joy: "I'm fine, I just think... That's kind of interesting! Hey, uncle, don't mind if we walk around the garden, do you? ”

"Of course not! But please be sure to follow the rules here! ”

Before entering the garden, Duck said some rules, such as not destroying the garden at will, let alone picking fruits and even plants. There are also certain places that you can't enter, such as their lord's rest area.

In addition to this, he also talked about the activity patterns of unknown creatures. At first, they only commit crimes at dusk, but later they come back at night.

In the last three days, they have been visiting the garden frequently. If this momentum continues, within five days, the rainbow fruit will be plucked.

With a shortage of manpower, Duck had to hope that the adventurers would be more reliable.

The unknown creature was only interested in the rainbow fruit, and the rest of the fruit trees did not move, so they cared about the rainbow fruit trees planted in patches.

As soon as this happened, Duck took emergency measures, and each tree had a defensive barrier.

If it's an ordinary monster, let alone picking fruit, it's hard to even get close to the barrier.

However, it is unbelievable that the fruit was taken away when there was someone to take care of it 24 hours a day!

There is no abnormality in the defensive enchantment, but the fruit is just gone, and the monster really has such a clever means?

This situation is beyond the scope of Dark's cognition, and there is nothing wrong with reporting a D-level commission, but in Honglian's opinion, that reward is inevitably less!

"Uncle, I think you should know how bad the situation is, just that little reward... That's too little, at least that's the number! ”

"Red Lotus, we haven't started working yet, so you just talk about the remuneration, and it's inevitable.."

"It's okay, as long as you can do good deeds, I will give you a reward of 10 gold! If you can catch those monsters, you might even give you some special rewards! ”

Red Lotus just raised a finger, and wanted to ask for 1 gold coin, but he didn't expect Duck to be so bold: 10 gold? Probably enough for me to buy a lot of clothes, right?

"In that case, then I'll go out and have a look first!"

When Jia Luo came out of the bathroom, he happened to see Red Lotus dangling outside: "Uh, Red Lotus, what are you doing here?" That uncle said we can't be in."

"I'm too lazy to talk to you! Jarrow, let's compare and see, to see who finds the "thieves" first, to see who kills them first, the one who loses.. Hey! ”

Ooh? She's so driven?

Jarrow didn't know the specific situation, and when he walked back to the house, Duck was no longer there: "Xiu, the matter. What do you know? ”

"What else? See for yourself? ”

After entering the garden, Alice became inexplicably irritable. Thinking that the red lotus should be fine, she buried her head in the orchard distribution map.

There are four major blocks in the Rainbow Fruit Tree Area, all of which are far apart. According to intelligence, there have been cases of fruit loss in all four areas.

When you don't know when the other party will come, it is quite difficult to keep the fruit.

Calling a subordinate, Alice asked, "Since they are acting collectively, before they act... It must be hiding somewhere, don't you?"

I only heard the subordinate shake his head and answered: "I'm sorry, please forgive us for our limited ability, even guarding the garden... It's hard to keep them, so how can they make time to find their lair? Please, everybody.. Finish? ”

Jarrow washed his face, and as soon as the next person looked at him, he recognized him: "Actually... It's an adult, and I'm sure I'll be able to catch those hateful guys! ”

The subordinate turned his head and ran, Jarrow was already surprised, but Charles minded a little: "Uh, Jarrow, are you scared people?" ”

After a long rest, Jarrow did not recover. Charles was also a little tired because of the armor.

At this time, it is just after three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is thick, if you don't adjust your state, once you encounter an unknown creature, you will definitely fall into danger!

"I didn't do anything, he ran away on his own, don't blame me for this! Say, what to do? ”

After some talking, Jarrow probably knew the situation: what if they didn't show up after a night of vigilance?

"What else can I do? Red Lotus has gone out to make arrangements, and we can't continue to sit here! Walk! Jarrow, if you're tired, you might as well .."

"No, I'm fine, let's go!"

At the same moment, knowing the danger of Jarrow, Duck knocked on the master's bedroom door again: "Master, those adventurers... It did come, just.. There's a guy who has a bit of a problem, and he's the one that's rumored to be.."

"What does it matter? No matter who they are, as long as they can clean up those hateful weird guys, the rest... It doesn't matter! Almost forgot, those traps.. Is it set up? ”

It's okay not to mention it, but as soon as he mentions Dark, his face sank: Oops, I forgot to tell those young people about this, if they...

Duck was about to reply, when an explosion was heard in the distance...
